Using ATRAZINE weed killer

Using ATRAZINE weed killer - 05/24/23 10:56 PM

Derek, last year you suggested i use Atrazine mixed with Celsius to kill a number of weeds including clover etc. Followed instructions and the product worked well. I used Atrazine this year without the Celsius and results were poor. The Atrazine had been stored since last summer.
I found the Celsius on Amazon 0.226 oz. pack for $21.98 .
I don't recall how much Celsius to mix with the Atrazine.

Would appreciate your thoughts.

They started packaging Celsius in the small packs this year. Rates are pretty simple and depends on what you're trying to kill. You're at the medium to maybe low rate when mixed with Atrazine.1 pack per 2750 sq ft. I'll link the simple new label and the full complex label. The simple label doesn't mention it because they are trying to keep it super simple for DIY, but I would add a non ionic surfactant to the mix(full label recommends it)

I'm sure you're spot spraying so be careful. It doesn't need a heavy 5 second soak. Just a light spray and go. Medium rate is designed to be used with like 3 gallons of water over 3k square feet (I'm rounding up) so you can see that a little goes a long way.

Russel Feed Store`s carry the small package for 18.99 each. I saw it @ the Benbrook store last week. Didn`t buy any cause I didn`t know if it was a good price or not. Amazon sells it for 21.98.
